In Thailand, hemp is now legal to grow, the Food and Drug Administration announced. For commercial, medical, educational, personal, traditional, and cultural purposes, the general public can gain permission to grow hemp. Training sessions will be held to educate the public about cannabis laws and regulations as well as health-related products made from hemp.
The current regulation allows the acquisition, production, and possession of cannabis, according to FDA Deputy Secretary-General Supatra Boonserm. Hemp exports are allowed, but the imports of hemp seeds aren't allowed yet.
Even before growing hemp, the public must first get permission from the FDA. A request can be filed at the Bangkok office of the FDA or the provincial health offices. Those who want to import hemp seeds are only required to seek FDA permission.
